Edited .... Morning Collector's. I Could use some help identifying these book end vases. Cobalt blue and a highly polished pontil mark. Quality is not that of a chalet vase. No makers mark. 10 inches tall And 3.5 lbs each. Any ideas on the maker would be appreciated. Thanks for looking and have a great night! Thanks to Vetraio for the great lead on the possible Czech connection and to Sklo for the insight!! You both are the reason this site is so great!!
Chribska .... Josef Hospodka, I think.
I think the polished pontil goes against Hospodka's designs for Chribska. But most of all they lack the flow and balance of Hospodka's designs.
Thanks to B.B.2, Karenoke, Fortapache, and Vetraio for taking the time to comment.
Another option is Royal Gallery (Poland). They made a similar shape but I usually see examples of those as a combination of blue and green. I'm on my phone so I can't see a lot of detail. You may want to compare pictures of their work with your vases. What I can see is beautiful!
Big Thanks to swfinluv1 for solving the Mystery! " Royal gallery" (Poland ) exact matches to this vase. My photos do not clearly show the green at the base but you identified anyway! Thanks to everyone for the love and comments!
You're welcome!
